Going to Zhengding to celebrate the New Year 1 - Catch the Daji
Zhengding is famous because it is a famous historical and cultural city. It is located in the southwest of Hebei Province. Now it belongs to Shijiazhuang. It was called Changshan and Zhending in ancient times. The hometown of the centenary emperor Zhao Tuo and the ever-victorious general Zhao Yun. As of 2010, Zhengding has 9 national-level cultural relics protection units and 6 provincial-level cultural relics protection units.
Zhengding is also famous because Xi Jinping came here in 1982 and served as the secretary of the county party committee for three years.
Driving out of Beijing, the visibility is really good, but when the car enters the Baoding area, the smog is getting worse. I originally thought that the reduction of smog in Beijing is due to the weather itself, but now it seems that it is really inseparable from governance. Otherwise, how could the Hebei area tens of kilometers away be so different from Beijing.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the expressway is easy to drive. It takes more than 2 hours to reach Zhengding, 280 kilometers away. I have been to Hebei several times, and I have a bad impression, but Zhengding is different, the streets are neat and clean. As soon as I entered the city, I saw an advertisement, saying that there was a big fair next to Guanghui Temple, so I caught up with it, let's go to feel the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year first.
The small town is not big, just a few kilometers away. As soon as I entered the market, I felt a strong sense of the New Year. Red is everywhere, red is warm, red is dazzling. Coupled with the red clothes worn by my companions, it is simply a piece of red, a piece of red.
The footsteps of the year are approaching. In the past few years in Beijing, I have long lost the enthusiasm for celebrating the New Year, and I don't feel any flavor of the New Year. Here, you know what is a booming New Year's Eve. We were also melted in red, and our mood naturally became excited.
